Re: Review: Pinnacle Vinyl & Rubber Cleaner & Conditioner
While it did improve your trim piece there, I think it may be better suited for interior surfaces like the dash and door panels, etc. The textured plastic trim you were working with would likely see a marked improvement if you used a product like CQuartz DLux.
Thank you for the nice review none-the-less.

Interesting. You'll have to update this tread once it's been rained on a few times/ how it holds up.

Yeah, I agree with you 100%. In fact, I have some DLux I haven't opened yet. I've just waiting for the right day. Just have to clean all the trim well enough for a coating, and well above freezing temperatures
After past experiences with water based rubber/plastic products, I rather not try them on my interior. I really like my interior combo of Meg's Qik Interior and 303 Protectant (looks perfect no issues) and under the hood I use Sonus Motor Koat. I love so far, still testing durability before I do a full review...

I bought some to try. 303 Protectant has been around for a long time and is hard to beat. I was hoping to drop the APC step, but it looks like I will be staying with the APC then 303 route for rubber and plastic.

Sorry to disappoint but I don't think there will be much of a durability update for this on my exterior trim. It started to fade away as it dried, and the previous product (PERL) is still there causing a problem. I was exclusively interested in using "Pinnacle Vinyl&Rubber Cleaner&Conditioner" as a trim cleaner/conditioner in my problematic areas that only needed cleaning and reconditioning. Regrettably it didn't meet my needs in either department.
It may be useful for other areas, such as; rubber weather stripping, interior plastics, and the engine bay, which I didn't include in my review because I have other products covering those specific areas and are working very well. I'll be sure to provide more reviews of the products I find that work and last.
I've put the product up for trade to pass it on.

Yeah, I really don't like using APC as it eats the LSP and is unhealthy without a respirator mask.
I'm going to man up and do a few strong APC treatments on the trim and coat with DLUX (after I try one last trim product I have). I have a lot of complex trims (the grills) and poor weather conditions for a coating (even the garage I work in is only about 38-44f, just on the border of too cold for a coating).

Thanks for the review. I thought this product was for interior use only?

It is, but I personally didn't like there. It's an extremely mild cleaner and just an okay dressing.

My mistake. I assumed the plastics on the outside were the same as the inside. I'll retest in a more appropriate area like the inside trunk plastics that could use some cleaning and dressing. Thanks for pointing this out.
